In a social setting last week, I asked a woman standing near me what she did for work. She replied, "For my benefits, I work at XYZ company. For my passion, I edited medical manuscripts". It hit me hard although it has been happening for a long time. Medical insurance for all of us has become so expensive that many stay in their job just for the benefits.

Medical benefits has also been a reason why people don’t become entrepreneurs, or delay them from becoming one! I know that having them from my spouse made a difference for me, and I know others have had concerns about them for themselves. And though you can extend COBRA payments, the high cost is usually prohibitive.
